Karine Bell, MSc, SEP, is the founder and co-dreamer for the Rooted Global Village. She's a bi-cultural Black woman, a speaker, somatics educator, practitioner, somatic abolitionist, and scholar-activist in training focused on deepening an understanding of the impacts of trauma and oppression on our lives, and liberatory and decolonial frameworks and traditional/indigenous approaches to trauma healing and community building.
Karine's emphasis on living authentically from the heart, embracing curiosity, wonder, and research, reflects a holistic and grounded approach to her work. Her love and dedication to her children further fuel her commitment to making a difference both personally and collectively.
Continuing her studies at Pacifica Graduate Institute in decolonial depth psychology, with a focus on community, liberation, indigenous, and eco-psychologies, showcases her ongoing dedication to expanding her knowledge and skills to better serve her community and the broader world.
In this episode, Karine and Sonali talks about:
Breaking free from the limitations of labels and identities ("burning boxes")
Somatic Abolitionism as a practice for shedding conditioning and societal constraints
Embodiment and sensuality as a path to liberation
Deep Time activism and the concept of tending to generational change
The limitations of biographical introductions and the tension between self-disclosure and resisting categorization
and so much more
